Item Fault diagnosis studies of face milling cutter using machine learning approach(Multi-Science Publishing Co. Ltd claims@sagepub.com, 2016) Madhusudana, C.K.; Budati, S.; Gangadhar, N.; Kumar, H.; Narendranath, S.Successful automation of a machining process system requires an effective and efficient tool condition monitoring system to ensure high productivity, products of desired dimensions, and long machine tool life. As such the component's processing quality and increased system reliability will be guaranteed. This paper presents a classification of healthy and faulty conditions of the face milling tool by using the Naive Bayes technique. A set of descriptive statistical parameters is extracted from the vibration signals. The decision tree technique is used to select significant features out of all statistical extracted features. The selected features are fed to the Naive Bayes algorithm. The output of the algorithm is used to study and classify the milling tool condition and it is found that the Naive Bayes model is able to give 96.9% classification accuracy. Also the performances of the different classifiers are compared. Based on the results obtained, the Naive Bayes technique can be recommended for online monitoring and fault diagnosis of the face milling tool. © 2016 The Author(s).Item Condition monitoring of single point cutting tools based on machine learning approach(International Institute of Acoustics and Vibrations P O Box 13 Auburn AL 36831, 2018) Gangadhar, N.; Kumar, H.; Narendranath, S.; Sugumaran, V.This paper presents the use of multilayer perceptron (MLP) for fault diagnosis through a histogram feature extracted from vibration signals of healthy and faulty conditions of single point cutting tools. The features were extracted from the vibration signals, which were acquired while machining with healthy and different worn-out tool conditions. Principle component analysis (PCA) used to select important extracted features. The artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm was applied as a fault classifier in order to know the status of cutting tool conditions. The accuracy of classification with MLP was found to be 82.5 %, which validates that the proposed approach is an effective method for fault diagnosis of single point cutting tools. © 2018 International Institute of Acoustics and Vibrations.

TCM provides continuously the condition of cutting tool by noticing various parameters such as temperature, acoustic emission and vibration. One of the best ways to monitor the condition of cutting tools for unmanned machining is by observing tool vibration signature. In the present work, vibration signals are acquired from the cutting tool. One healthy state and three faulty conditions of tools are considered for the study. The faulty tools considered in the current study are worn flank, broken tool and extended overhang. The vibration signals of these faulty tool conditions are used to train the machine learning algorithm. Statistical features are extracted from the vibration signal to feed as input to the J48 decision tree. The classifier algorithm used in the current study is rotation forest algorithm. The algorithm uses only significant features which are selected from a decision tree. The algorithm is validated with test dataset to recognize the faulty or healthy state of the tool. It was found that the algorithm could classify the tool condition with 95.00% classification accuracy. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Item Comparative study on tool fault diagnosis methods using vibration signals and cutting force signals by machine learning technique(Tech Science Press sale@techscience.com, 2020) Aralikatti, S.S.; Ravikumar, K.N.; Kumar, H.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.; Sugumaran, V.The state of cutting tool determines the quality of surface produced on the machined parts. A faulty tool produces poor surface, inaccurate geometry and non-economic production. Thus, it is necessary to monitor tool condition for a machining process to have superior quality and economic production. In the present study, fault classification of single point cutting tool for hard turning has been carried out by employing machine learning technique. Cutting force and vibration signals were acquired to monitor tool condition during machining. A set of four tooling conditions namely healthy, worn flank, broken insert and extended tool overhang have been considered for the study. The machine learning technique was applied to both vibration and cutting force signals. Discrete wavelet features of the signals have been extracted using discrete wavelet transformation (DWT). This transformation represents a large dataset into approximation coefficients which contain the most useful information of the dataset. Significant features, among features extracted, were selected using J48 decision tree technique. Classification of tool conditions was carried out using Naïve Bayes algorithm. A 10 fold cross validation was incorporated to test the validity of classifier. A comparison of performance of classifier was made between cutting force and vibration signal to choose the best signal acquisition method in classifying tool fault conditions using machine learning technique. © 2020 Tech Science Press.

Suppressing the tool vibration to enhance the finished product quality is the need of the hour. The current study proposes the augmentation of a Magnetorheological (MR) fluid damper to suppress tool vibration in hard tuning with easy installation without structural modification. The MR fluid damper changes its damping coefficient with the magnetic field to regulate variable cutting conditions. An optimal composition of MR fluid has been prepared in-house to be used in the damper. The in-house MR fluid is compared with commercial MR fluid. The comparison shows that in-house prepared MR fluid performs equally well compared to commercial fluid. The MR damper effectively damps high-amplitude vibration at aggressive cutting conditions. The L9 Taguchi design of the experiment opted to arrive at minimal machining parameters to evaluate the damper's performance in machining two workpiece materials, namely oil-hardened nickel steel (OHNS) and high carbon high chromium (HCHCR D2) die steel. The surface roughness and tool vibration are reduced with the damper. It is noted that in-house MR fluid performed equally well as commercial MR fluid. The tool wear study is also carried out to monitor the influence of external damping over tool life. The stability lobe diagram is obtained analytically with experimental validation to mark the stability limit of the machining condition. The stability boundary increases with the damper enabling aggressive cutting conditions. © 2023 The Society of Manufacturing Engineers
